some of your colleagues, lindsey graham and john mccain have been outspoke on this point. what say you? >> there is a lot of questions to be answered here yet and one would be if susan rice has lots of briefings just like i believe she has access to the president's daily briefing information, what did she know and was she giving information she knew not to be accurate. there's a difference if all you're doing is talking from the unclassified talking points, which means you can find most of this in the newspaper, and that's all you know, or if you know something that clearly is different than what you're telling the american people, she may just know exactly what she said and at if that's the case, i'm wondering why five days later, she's the person the white house has out there saying things that clearly was not in agreement with the cia's early analysis of what had really happened. the one thing that the cia did say, andrea, was early on, was it looks like there was a demonstration before all this started. now we know there wasn't a demonstration at all. we saw the survei
